Upcoming Trade Shows Bordeaux, France for Decorations

No other trade fair has had such a pronounced boost on the local economy of Bordeaux than the Foire Internationale de Bordeaux, which has been running for over one hundred years. The fair is also the backbone for Bordeaux’s decorations industry and drives thousands upon thousands of eager buyers to local manufacturers, artists and artisans. The fair's resilience is evident, having paused only during the war and the COVID-19 pandemic; living proof of its importance to the city and its people. The Foire Internationale de Bordeaux is not just a marketplace; it’s a festival in its own right. With over 800 exhibitors, the event promises a blend of commerce and culture, offering something for everyone. The 2024 edition will feature four main exhibition centers focusing on Housing, Art of Living, Ecomobility and Gastronomy, which all together create the ultimate shopping experience. However, shopping is only part of the appeal. The fair also offers a rich cultural program, sporting activities, attractions, and delicious food, making it a nine-day celebration of authenticity, pleasure, and energy. One of the key highlights of this year’s fair is the Colors Festival, a new addition to the Foire Internationale de Bordeaux. The decorations industry in Bordeaux is expected to shine at the fair, as it always has. The biggest trends everyone’s talking about are sustainability and creative innovation. Local exhibitors will showcase a range of products that bring modernity to traditional craftsmanship and place eco-friendly materials and designs front and centre. As seen across industries, sustainable living has become a priority for modern consumers. In addition to the Colors Festival, the Gustave Trophy will spotlight 15 innovative companies from New Aquitaine, selected by a jury to present their new products, services, or manufacturing processes. This segment serves to promote local brands doing exemplary, forward-thinking work and support local businesses.
